Default Re: Preparing for a Tropical Storm or Hurricane

Mary,
Prepare for the worst and watch the storm whenever it is coming your way. We have survived 6 or 7 hurricanes and although none harmed us physically it sure catches your attention. We are now 20 miles inland in central Florida and are set pretty much up to 140 mph winds, if it sounds like it will be worse we will head for high ground. If you have never enjoyed 100 mph winds they are quite impressive. Prepare your pantry ahead and store as much water as you can. Water is the most important since it may not be available if a storm hits. Run if you have to, bananas will grow back.
